Lyrics Came a Long Way - C5

Came a Long Way

I was on the grind in them trenches all day
Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day
Like a marathon I den came a long way
I came a long way I den came a long way
I was on the grind in them trenches all day
Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day
Like a marathon I den came a long way
I came a long way I den came a long way
Gotta thank God for this
Almost lost my life for this
I was selling dimes and nicks
Trying to ball like the Knicks
Gotta keep a condom on cause you know that life a bitch
I’m in this cold world it’s fucking up my sinuses
They been taking lives everyday like it’s vitamins
I’m trying to get this green like a Heineken
You know what time it is
I ain’t got no time to Lay but you know I’m bout my chips
They gave my big cuz the book ain’t talking The Alchemist
We reminisce bout what we used to do through these letters
Right or wrong you know you my family through whatever
25 with a letter
I could be doing time with him but he proud I’m doing better, yea
I was on the grind in them trenches all day
Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day
Like a marathon I den came a long way
I came a long way I den came a long way
I was on the grind in them trenches all day
Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day
Like a marathon I den came a long way
I came a long way I den came a long way
What I been through you wouldn’t believe me if I told you
And what I overcame you wouldn’t believe me less I know you
I came a long way dog I wasn’t even mobile
Streets turn you to a man and I ain’t go to no adult school
Beauty in the struggle though
Like I’m far sighted always seen light at the end of the tunnel though
I got my hustle on ain’t going home til my bundle gone
Boy in the hood with a Nia Long
And you know I’m strapped like my cinturón, yea
Only stopping for the red lights
Only talking to the feds when I’m getting read rights
I ain’t got no friends left cause you know they dead right?
Think my girl gone leave me I got her stressing every night
Like damn
I been getting money all night lil baby
Your girl don’t love you if she ain’t a lil crazy
Blessed to be alive everyday a celebration
Shout out my nigga Sharp he keep my songs in rotation
Yea
Keep my songs in rotation
I went from the trap to a private location
Ain’t nobody know me now I’m getting hood famous
I came a long way
I was on the grind in them trenches all day
Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day
Like a marathon I den came a long way
I came a long way I den came a long way
I was on the grind in them trenches all day
Now the boy shine even when it’s broad day
Like a marathon I den came a long way
I came a long way I den came a long way
